It was released on 5 August 2002 by HIM International Music. The track "美麗新世界" (Genesis) is listed at number 24 on Hit Fm Taiwan's Hit Fm Annual Top 100 Singles Chart (Hit-Fm年度百首單曲) for 2002.[1] ## Contents * 1 Album information * 2 Track listing * 3 Music videos * 4 Charts * 5 References * 6 External links ## Album information[edit] Although the title track was an upbeat and lively number, S.H.E regarded it as their most difficult song at the time. While both Girls Dorm and Youth Society had songs that were sung entirely in English ("H.B.O" and "I've Never Been To Me", respectively), "Woman In Love", a cover of Rebekah Ryan's original in the Genesis album, would be the last English song that S.H.E would sing. In April 2003, eight months after the release of Genesis, actress Chen Mingzhen's "Thinking of Your Moment" (想你的瞬間) covered the same Sweetbox song as "Ocean of Love" (愛情的海洋).[2] According to Chen, she recorded "Thinking of Your Moment" one year before S.H.E had put it on Genesis, but the only reason S.H.E managed to sing "Ocean of Love" first was because Chen was delayed by manufacturing problems.[2] ## Track listing[edit] No.| Title| Lyrics| Music| Arrangement| Length | | | | | 1.| "美麗新世界" (Genesis)| Li Tien Lung, Anson Yen| Li Tien Lung| David Lu| 4:25 2.| "愛呢" (Where's Love)| Derek Shih| Roberto Rosan, Heiko Schmidt| BabyC| 3:34 3.| "Watch Me Shine"| Hsu Shih Chen| Dino Esposito| Kenn C| 3:17 4.| "你快樂我隨意" (If you are happy, then I'll be pleased)| Kevin Yi, Hebe| J.

Despite choreographing every music video, only one track, "Where's Love", featured something resembling a plot, which depicted Ella's sadness and nostalgia after breaking up with her boyfriend and Selina and Hebe attempting to comfort her. "Fascination" was the last music video made for the album's karaoke VCD because it consisted of footage from S.H.E's N-age Concert in Tainan. ## Charts[edit] Channel [V] Chinese Music (Taiwan) - Top 20[3] Track name | Peak position | "愛呢" (Where's Love) | 3 "愛情的海洋" (Ocean of Love) | 3 ## References[edit] 1. ^ (in Chinese) Hit Fm Annual Top 100 Singles Chart 2002 (#1-50) Retrieved 2011-04-16 2. ^ a b (in Chinese) Same song: Chen Mingzhen loses to S.H.E. 1 April 2003.
